Pros

Project engineering provides good mix of analysis/design and hands on commissioning and troubleshooting. Tesla energy designs and builds both small C&I microgrids and large utility scales energy storage sites, and the company allows you to work on project. The team works hard and sometimes long hours, but is understanding with PTO. Although Tesla is a large company, the North America project engineering is a smaller group of about 17 people. Everyone on the team is supportive and willing to lend a hand to help on a project or issue.

Cons

As of now, project engineers lead site commissioning, which requires a good amount of travel. However, Tesla is training a team of commissioning engineers, which should help alleviate some of the travel.
